Cavan Leitrim Railway

The Cavan & Leitrim Railway was one of the most fascinating and at one time busiest of Ireland's narrow-gauge railways.

The story of the railway is also one of this little known part of Ireland and its people. Locals were very devoted to the Cavan & Leitrim Railway. It was their devotion, which enabled the line to cope successfully with coal traffic.

Today this magnificently restored narrow gauge railway offers the visitor a chance to experience the age of steam transport. The railway brings you back through time to an era when our ancestors travelled through the unspoiled landscapes of Leitrim. An extensive collection of steam, diesel trains, rolling stock and vintage buses allow you to trace the history of the Irish narrow gauge railway system
